“I want to have a lasting experience of God,” I told him. “Sometimes I feel like I understand the divinity of this world, but then I lose it because I get distracted by my petty desires and fears”.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“you must stop looking at the world through your head. You must look through your heart, instead.”

“We’re miserable because we think that we are mere individuals, alone with our fears and flaws and resentments and mortality. We wrongly believe that our limited little egos constitute our whole entire nature. We have failed to recognize our deeper divine character. We don’t realize that, somewhere within us all, there does exist a supreme Self who is eternally at peace. That supreme Self is our true identity, universal and divine. Before you realize this truth... you will always be in despair.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“— Ты пойми, я здесь-то урод, а кем я буду в Америке?
— Да не ссы, Борик! —  сказал я. — Не понравится — вернёшься.
